Lore from the Canon

• The Dark Wheel has references to Randomius Factoria (chapter 3).

Lore from outside the Canon

• The Rough Guide to the Ooniverse mentions the following:

Aesbion (Rough Guide) was home to the God-Emperor who ruled during the Imperial Era from the Exalted City, close to the Cathedral of Winds

Aronar (Rough Guide) is home to fervent Giles worshippers, who are yet fervid gamblers!

Reorte (Rough Guide) is an ever-changing theocracy with new gods being invented daily

Tianve (Rough Guide) has devotees to the Pulsar God Tiaxus, who can be propositioned to delay his Sunrage.

OXPs

• Tionisla Orbital Graveyard features a variety of religious symbols depicted on their monuments: crucifixes, stars of David, menhirs etc.
• Missionaries OXP gives us four varieties: Happy Eye preachers, CGC (Church of Giles the Creator) missionaries, Witchspace Lobster worshippers and Zenarchy monks.
• Hognose - includes obnoxious lobster missionaries
• Interstellar Tweaks - includes crusading lobster missionaries
• Bank of the Black Monks of Saint Herod the bankers: only the righteous walk the Path of Debt!
• Whilst the original Dictators OXP only features agricultural junta and technological imperial versions, there is also the theocratic Church of the Holy Witchspace Guard which Montana05 is developing as a third version of Dictatorship.
